We’re moving!

Thanks for using the 29k app – we really hope you like it. ❤️

Perhaps you’ve noticed that we haven’t updated the 29k app for a while. That’s because we’ve put all our efforts into creating a new home for our amazing users and our awesome content: the Aware app.

Download on the App StoreGet it on Google Play

In Aware you’ll get

  • Improved ways of digging into evidence-based sessions: whenever you want on your own, or live with friends or anyone.
  • Updated content – Including all your favorites from 29k in new costumes.
  • Open live sessions, where you practice and reflect together with others.
  • Unique portals that lead the way into all sessions, and mesmerizing art works throughout.
  • Progress and commitments saved in My journey tab. The Explore tab gives overview and the Today tab gives suggestions, invites you to join upcoming live sessions, your next planned session, or get inspired by others.
  • Practice and/or session reminders to keep you on track with your plan.
  • State of the art privacy by design, making it easy to get started – no registration is needed.

In short, there is a lot to discover in Aware and we are excited to meet you there.

On May 31, the 29k app will be closing. So this is a heads up to give you time to do things at your own pace, and make your move when you are ready.

What do I need to do?

  • Finish up any sharing groups you’re in. Note down each others’ contact information if you want to continue with your group in Aware.
  • Take notes of your progress and/or test results if you want to keep them.

Tried a lot of apps (the top 5) but they start off too long and the words they speak are generic. This is much better.

This is the best meditation app I've ever used in my entire life. It's a nonprofit, but they're doing a very great job in providing the best. With updates, more and more episodes are being uploaded. Love the app ❤️❤️❤️

I make it my daily routine to visit this app. It has been one of my life savers. It is one of my mood boosters and regulators of mental and emotional wellness.

This app quite literally helped me conquer my depression. I had been suffering from it since 2017. Prescribed pills and light therapy was not able to do that. It costs no money and for someone that is low income, like me, that was helpful. I learned a lot about myself with this app and I hope others can do the same. I am finally on a better path.

If you prefer not to come along as we move over to Aware - you don’t have to do anything. Your account and all related info will be deleted together with the 29k app on May 31st.

What you will like about Aware

  1. The experience
    In Aware the sharing of your own and others’ experiences are integrated with the content. Join live mindfulness or learning sessions and interact with others in real time, or dig in on your own. Aware is a smoother and more streamlined experience, offering users beautiful and evidence-based content in easy-to-digest formats. Updated code also allows for a smoother and more stable user journey, catered to your needs.
  2. More human connection
    Whether you choose to work on your own, with friends or with anyone, we’ve made sure that the Aware app always supports you with connection to others. Many users in the 29k app have struggled to get groups going. In Aware, we offer live sessions with authorized hosts for anyone to join so you’ll never again be alone in joining a sharing.
  3. Updated content
    No more long texts to read – all content is available as audio. So you can just lean back and listen to exercises and meditations. We’ve updated all content and added some new bits and pieces that we hope you will like. Also, we’ve made adjustments to apply the latest research findings so you can trust that you get state of the art material, backed by science.
  4. The security
    You’re safe with us. You can be anonymous, use an alias or your real name. You decide. In Aware there is no need for registration or email address. A privacy by design approach gives users full control over all their data. Progress, plans and reflections are stored locally on the user device.

Things that might be a little bit of a hustle

  1. Sharing groups
    If you’re in a group, make sure you have each others’ contact info before May xx, since you will not be able to move any groups over to Aware. In Aware, you can invite each other to sharing sessions straight from the app via email, text message, Messenger, Slack and a bunch of other ways. Also, we advice you not to start any new groups in the 29k app from now on.
  2. All accounts will be deleted
    By the end of May 2024, we will close down the 29k app. All accounts associated with 29k will be deleted. If you would like to save any of your progress, test results or notes, make sure to do so somewhere else before May xxth.

Any questions or feedback? Reach out to us in our community on Slack or send us an email at hello@29k.org.

With lots of love ❤️,
The 29k Aware team
